On the internet, you never know who’s watching!

23 04 2010

So today at work I got an email from a colleague saying they’d found my blog on Compassion’s Blogroll.

I was pretty surprised. This is a personal blog, linked up with my personal email account – how on earth did they find me?! I’m not bothered by it at all, was just entirely curious!

It turns out a simple google search discovered my entry where I mentioned that I work for Compassion UK, and so I was bookmarked!

A simple reminder that nothing on the internet is as hidden as you assume it is!

Indeed.

I have always been careful to keep ‘work’ and things that might identify who I work for off the blog. Just slipped up once, and that was discovered very quickly.

At least with you blogging so seldom you know you won’t be watched very much!
